Can anyone help identify these symbols from 1876 PA?

I've found these on a lot of maps published by G. M. Hopkins & Co. but none of the symbols show up in any legends I've seen. They're usually along streams or roads, but sometimes they're just out in the middle of nowhere.

Check them against newer maps of the same area and see if the symbols have changed to something understandable.

Truffle seeking pig modified for metal.

The results have been so-so

When the pig fails me (which is often), I am relegated to a CTX3030 *sigh*. Like the dark ages or something.

I have an old mapping software that I use a lot. It has a symbol SORTA like that.

They classify it as a "draw".

Maybe but maybe not. Hopefully it is a piece of the puzzle.
